Form Designer allows you to create and manage advanced dynamic forms compatible with the new Modern interface of SharePoint. Forms generated by the Designer contain features and capabilities matching or exceeding the classic forms. Both classic forms and modern forms will continue to be available and you can choose the kind most appropriate for your project.
Note: Once a modern form is applied to a list or library, it replaces the classic form.
The modern forms currently have the following limitations:
- No support for custom column types from 3rd party vendors (not planned)
- No support for special list types (recurrence in calendars, surveys, support is planned in the future)
- Forms not synchronized with left side navigation (technically impossible)
- Users who will be publishing modern forms through the Forms Designer will require Design permissions on the list to be able to publish their forms.
- Users who will be using forms need to have at least Read permissions to the Site Assets library.
NOTE: If your Tenant/sites has upgraded to Infowise Ultimate Forms version 1.4.0.0, you will no longer require the Read permissions for regular users on the Site Pages library on any new forms or re-Published modern forms. If you still have Modern Forms published from before the upgrade you will still need the Read permissions for regular users until you republish all forms on the site.
NOTE: on-premises customers -
